[QUOTE="brkntrxn, post: 7772899, member: 12396"] Using open fittings was my original intent. However, I was unable to find 90 degree fittings that had the right size to fit in the valve cover and run the smaller 3/8" hose. All of the 90 degree fittings I was coming across that fit the valve cover had a much larger 5/8" barb opening and I did not want to use that large of a hose (asthetics more than anything else). So, I chose to use the stock PCV valves (I already had one, getting another for a few bucks was easy enough). The PCV valves allow plenty of air to flow out of the valve cover to vent pressure. If you put a balloon on the catch can, it will quickly inflate at idle. The other plus is it helped with my decision to pack the catch can with 0000 steel wool instead of steel mesh (which I couldn't find). With the PCV valves in place, I don't have to worry about something getting sucked back up into the valve covers. My .02, YMMV. :beer: [/QUOTE]
